The University of Louisiana at 青涩直播 is among the top 19 percent of the nation鈥檚 four-year colleges for undergraduate education, according to The Princeton Review.

Editors of the guidebook for prospective college students examined more than 2,000 public and private colleges and universities in the U.S. to compile its 2021 edition of 鈥淭he Best 386 Colleges.鈥

The guide does not rank schools from 1 to 386. It evaluated academic programs and life on college campuses based on results of surveys of more than 143,000 students. Profiles of each school are also included.

"Since 1992, our goal in publishing college rankings 鈥 and our ongoing mission at The Princeton Review 鈥 is to help students find, get accepted to, and thrive at the colleges best for them,鈥 said Robert Franek, the guidebook鈥檚 editor-in-chief.

Dr. DeWayne Bowie, UL 青涩直播鈥檚 vice president for Enrollment Management, said the resource is 鈥渆specially valuable for people making decisions about where to attend college because the information is provided by students.鈥

鈥淭heir assessments give prospective students advice from a distinctive group of voices 鈥 others who recently faced similar choices in determining where to enroll,鈥 Bowie said.

Survey respondents cited academic offerings and diligent faculty members, and the quality of campus and community life among reasons they chose UL 青涩直播.

The importance the University places on community service, extracurricular activities, inclusion and diversity, and access to cultural events such as Festival Acadiens et Cr茅oles and Festival International de Louisiane were also key considerations.
